About The Boat House Venue

The Boat House Venue sits upstairs at the marina on Wharf Street in Port Douglas, looking out over the moored boats toward the Coral Sea and the rainforest-covered ranges of the Daintree. It is a dedicated events space, hired out for one celebration at a time. Inside is a bright, white-washed room with its own bar, which opens onto a covered deck along the water side. Guests can dine indoors, spill out onto the deck for drinks, or use both, and the room is air-conditioned for the warmer months. The venue seats up to 50 guests for a sit-down meal and holds up to 100 for a standing party. Wedding receptions with long tables, lounge settings for cocktail events and festive set-ups have all been staged here. Full-day hire runs from 9am until midnight and gives you exclusive use of the space along with its furnishings, lighting and a Bose speaker. Music goes off and final drinks are served at 11.30pm. Furniture, lighting and styling are supplied only by the venue's own hire company. The same team can help arrange catering, entertainment, florals and transport, from a simple dinner to a fully themed event. Events can be booked on weekdays or weekends at any time of year. Access is by stairs only, as there is no lift.
